This is not the greatest issue of Teen Titans, but it is a good Starfire tale, one that was needed. Read Full Review

This was a fun character spotlight for Starfire... written by the man who knows her better than anyone.  Worth picking up... just don't go into it expecting to see the entire Teen Titans line-up. Read Full Review

Buy the book, if your any kind of DC fan at all who has ever either loved Starfire at one point or another or loved the Teen Titans in any way shape or form your going to love this inclusion into their mythos. Read Full Review

Overall, the story did not lend itself to a multiple issue arc, so I am glad Wolfman and creative team were able to deliver an important coming of age story for Kory while keeping it engaging and entertaining. Read Full Review

TEEN TITANS #16 is an enjoyable read, though it's far from perfect. The heroic spotlight on Starfire gives great insight into her character, but an impatient plot takes away from the experience. Read Full Review

Teen Titans#16 has considerable strengths. However, I disliked the feeling of this being a filler issue. Starfire certainly shined, but the meaning and consequence of the story felt shortchanged. Still,Teen Titans #16 strikes a good tone. The story is compact and wraps neatly in a single issue. Wolfman's return brings nostalgia and weight to this one-off issue. Derenick's art is well-paired with Wolfman's dialogue. The colors were excellent and leptoff the page. However, the issue felt less than critical to the continuity of Teen Titans. Readers will wait to see if this story has any bearing on the next story arch. Read Full Review

This lacks the heart and emotion of his earlier work, which used to define this book as DC's answer to the X-Men. Now, it's just another teen melodrama. Read Full Review

As a Starfire fan, I was, for the most part, pleased with this issue Read Full Review

There's some potential, but the story ultimately falls flat. Read Full Review

With no advancement of the ongoing plot, this issue is strictly for Starfire fans or those wanting to see Wolfman craft another Titans story. Otherwise this one is safe to skip. Read Full Review

I don't think it's a bad comic. But at the same time I don't think it's a phenomenal read, either. In my opinion, this issue could easily be skipped and you would not really miss a thing, since the issue has some questionable choices regarding characterization, somewhat inconsistent artwork where bodily proportions are way off, and a number of plot holes that make the narrative very wobbly for me. As such, I would not recommend buying this issue unless you are a hardcore Starfire fan and have been looking to read a story where she takes center-stage, or you just don't want to leave any holes in your Rebirth Teen Titans comics collection.

A completely forgettable issue that can be painlessly subtracted from your pull list this week as it is purely a self-contained story with no future ramifications. Read Full Review

Tom Derenick, Trevor Scott, and Jim Charalanmpidis helm the artwork as penciller, inker, colorist, respectively and its fine. It doesnt distract from the storytelling nor does it enhance in any way. Hopefully moving forward the series will go back to using more unique styles as it did in the beginning with Khoi Pham and Jonboy Meyers. In the end this issue is inoffensive and uninteresting both in its writing and its art. If theres any comic to skip this week, this is it. Read Full Review

This was pretty nostalgic. It is great to see Marv Wolfman writing the Teen Titans again and this series really hasn't had character specific stories, so more of that will certainly be pleasant. This won't blow you away, but fans will appreciate the simple story. Others will probably be annoyed by how sensitive Starfire is.

Agreed: "This was a fun character spotlight for Starfire" but alas it felt like of filler tale importance which it didn't have too. At least Gar got a hug with Kor.
